Today, I only had to work at my day job til noon. I felt pretty good, and look what I accomplished! Yahoo! The whole center of Starry Log Cabin is put together! I have the border fabric washed and dried. It looks like this is really going to get finished. What a good feeling!
Tonight, I [...]

One last day in my four day weekend. I’m so sad to have to go back to work tomorrow. Yesterday, I did something fun. A few months ago, I was watching one of my Linda Taylor dvd’s of her PBS series, Linda’s Longarm Quilting. She had an episode on quilting vintage tops. That set me off [...]

I’ve been going around today taking some pictures to post in the next few days. Today, I will start with some pics I took yesterday. I took my cousin’s quilt to my parents house, to lay out on their bed for better photos. I still don’t have it trimmed, and now that my shoulder is [...]

Please bear with me, as I’ve been quite a blog slacker as of late. I just have to let this shoulder-whatever thing ease up, and am severely limiting my computer time to give it more time to rest. I had my xrays Monday, and after a quick look at them, my chiro said the only [...]

I’m sorry if you’ve been dropping by just to find nothing new. I woke up Saturday morning with my shoulder/back really bothering me, but tried to keep doing a few things. By Sunday morning, I couldn’t raise up out of bed w/o help from DH. Monday, I got in to my chiro and he worked [...]

I have managed to work on my projects some this week, in the evenings after work. Tonight, before DH got home and dinner was ready, I managed to get started on the final big feather in my cousin’s quilt.
And, I’ve been wrapping clothesline while watching TV at night, and on my lunch breaks I’ve been [...]
